Linus usually likes to rant about it on the WAN show then they usually make a clip for YouTube, but weird he didn’t do that for honey, maybe he didn’t know how far the scam went.
As creator that makes some of their profits from affiliate links, I don't see how that could be the case for him.
Seems more likely they had a reason to avoid beef with PayPal.
Could have a non disparagement clause in their former agreement
Not the level of a non-compete clause but that's a scummy thing I hope is not legal.
It's fairly common. As far as legal, that will depend on the jurisdiction and the mood of the judge.
